In the age of equal access, how does one discern meaningful connections on a free platform?
Imagine if every time someone wrote a comment on Facebook, Instagram they had to answer a simple math question before it's posted. A lot less online bullying will happen and the poster's mind will be sharpened.
With the lack of linked content in HN profiles, you're 100% sure the person who visits any given link you have via the Right Click or Copy/Paste is a meaningful connection that has gone out of their way.
My suggestion - Build a Chrome plugin to scrape the page to discover content that passes a link litmus and programatically link it on the fly.
